      Union Benefits Representative (Actually Turned Out to BE Insurance Sales Agent) Interview

      2 Oct 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Covina, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at American Income Life (Covina, CA) in Oct 2014

      Interview

      I received an email from a consulting company. A gentleman named told me he found my resume online and believed I was a good candidate for a position called Union Benefits Representative for a company called in Covina, CA. He told me the starting salary was $60,000. Being that I am a recent graduate, I was excited to hear about this opportunity. He said that if I was interested we could set up a phone interview the following day. I have him my phone number. He lated emailed me saying he was busy and if I was available to go talk to the office manger the following day. I said yes and he set up an interview for me with office manager. When I got to the building, there was about 15 people there. Some were waiting in line and some were filling out a candidate questionnaire. As I waited in line, I heard that multiple people came to meet with the office manager. I was beginning to feel that something was not right if 8 people all had interviews at 10 AM with one lady. When I got to the front, I said I was there to interview with the office manager. The receptionist gave me the candidate questionnaire, which asked my name, address, phone number, convictions, if I had a vehicle, etc. As I'm filling out the form multiple people are going in and out of the building meeting with the office manager and other people who worked there. When I met the office manager, she began telling me that this position was for labor benefits and insurance. She said the company was American Income Life Insurance and that because my resume was strong, she wanted me to stay for a presentation about American Income Life so I can get a better feel for the company. I stayed and she took me to a room where a presentation was being set up and about 12 other candidates were waiting. I recognized some people from the lobby so I guess it was there process of weeding out who got to stay. As I listened to the presentation, I became very bored and irritated. I wish I know the job was insurance sales and commission based only. I felt very mislead. The presenter said that we had the potential to make over $100,000/yr. He said we would have to get an insurance license for this job that costed anywhere between $250-$350. I was pissed. They mislead people to believe it was a good paying job but I think it is a scam. The office manager called me later in the day saying if I was interested and I told her I need a salary job, not commission based and I'm not interested in doing sales. All in all: if you want to do insurance sales, this is perfect for you. However, it's completely commission based and you have to pay out of pocket before you even have a chance to MAYBE make some money with this company. NO job should ever make someone pay to work for them.

      Question 1

      They didn't even ask me questions or get to know me. They just wanted me to be a "Yes" woman.
